My Story - By Sasha Marquez

I unfortunately don't have many memories of my mother because she was taken from me at such a young age. But if there is something that I do remember, it is how my mother smelled. That sensation alone automatically conjures a slew of emotions for me: warmth, security and lastly, the most important one - love. All of that was taken from me the day I woke up and found my mother was missing.
